[Verse 1]
G D C
Old man sleeping the hot day away
G D C
While he dreams a thousand yesterdays
G D C
'Cause he's had so many come his way
A C G
All he cares about is somewhere to lay his head tomorrow
[Verse 2]
G D C
Old man sits and thinks about his home
G D C
Doesn't matter 'cause he's all alone
G D C
What he'd give to get back on his own
A C G
Curses his body 'cause it's old and it gives no transportation
A C G
He sits in his one room shack alone but it provides no consolation
[Instrumental]

G C G D
[Chorus]
G C
What a shame, his time is nearing
G C
His eyes won't let him see the skies are clearing
G C
Someone tells him without his hearing
A C A C
It's no news to those who've been around while things are changing, oh
